Dozens of wagons loaded with the finest speci mens of this delicious fruit thronged the streets yesterday, but ten and fif teen cents was about the best prices that could be obtained, while many fine ones went for a nickel. Notwithstanding the bard times and the general dullness In all branches of business, the S., A. & U. rood seems to have about all It can do in the way of freight shipments. The road’s business is holding up remarkably well, and men and machines are kept as busy now ss at any season of the year. The machinery at the new Ice factory it now working all right, and the works are running on full time day and night This factory has a daily capacity of eighteen tons, which, with the output of the "old reliable" Americus Ice Works will serve to keep things In a frigid state while the heated Jerm it upon us. A slight change in schedule on the Southwestern division of the Central goes Into effect to-night. Hereafter the train from Macon will arrive at Ameri cus at 10:33 p. m., Instead of 0*6 as be fore, making a dlffercnco of just one hour.

Mr. Bailey will leave shortly for the northern markets, where he will purchase a large and select stock for his new store. The mid-summer heat seems to have a depressing effect upon the delightful meetings of “The Club,” which have proved auoh a source of pleasure to lit erary and social Americus. Many of the members are absent, enjoying the ocean brehzea and mountain air, but can’t The Club get a quorum—what aay you President Speer? Tax Receiver Mize is still busily en gaged getting the returns already made in proper shape. There will be little If any falling off In the figures of last year, notwithstanding the increase over the year previous was more than a million dollars, ss Receiver Mize keeps both eyes wide open and sees to it that all prop erty is returned for taxes at a just and fair valuation. A lodge of Odd Fellows will be or ganized In Americus on Tuesday eve ning next. The ceremonies promise to be quite Interesting, and will be partic ipated in by the ,Columbos lodge, and perhaps lodges from other cities as well. The Americus lodge will have more than forty charter members, which num ber will be rapidly Increased as the order is a very popular one. A few dayi ago the Central road car ried a train of bananas from Savannah to Atlanta, a distance of 290 miles In twelve hours. In ten mlnutei after the arrival of the train in Atlanta the cars were In the Western A Atlantic yard, This Is regarded by railroad men a re markable run, os the train had to change engines and crews at Macon and make several stops along the line.

Their wisdom will be seen when activity returns, for then their enterprises will be all ready to take advantage of prosper ous times. The movements of capitalists In this direction are Illustrated by reports In the Manu facturers’ Record of the purchase for Im mediate development of 25,000 acres of iron and timber land near New Castle, Va., at an advance of 200 per cent, over the price which It sold for last Septem, her; the decision of the owners of about 70,000 acres near the same place to com' mcnco Its active development and to construct a ten-milo railroad for this purpose; the sale of 6,000 acres of Iron ore property near Fredericksburg, Va. the purchase of the Columbia (8.

For a mid-summer week, with Europe and America puzzled over financial matters, this summary shows a really remarkable degree of activity In Southern development, and Indicates what may be expected this fall and win ter with a return of confidence to the business world. A Pleasant Occasion. Prominent among the many delight ful social events of the past week was the entertainment on Thursday evening at Leeton park, tendered by Miss Eula Coker in honor of her friend, Miss Annie Dozier, one of Dawson's fairest and most popular young ladies Notice, The patrons of The Times-Recgrdeb are urged to pay promptly the bills which are now due for subscription, ad vertising and job work for the past month. A newspaper has to pay lta labor the cash weekly, aud on the first of the month It Is necessary for all its bills to be promptly collected. The current expenses of Tue Times- Recorder establishment are about 650 per day, which must be paid every Monday without fall or delay. We are therefore compelled to press collections; and while the small bills that some owe may cause them to re gard the matter as insignificant, these small accounts aggregate several thou sand dollars, which we are compelled to collect promptly to meet our obligations. A newspaper can't run a week with- \ out money; so come up to the captain's At an early hour tho merry party rode v,ffl C o and settle. S. A. M. ROUTE.
